Face in the Mist


A few years ago, my adopted Brother Glenn took me to the Redwood Forests--it was a trip I'd dreamed of for years.  Above you see one of the carven faces you can find in the forest there.


When I went through the pictures after I returned home, I found a face in the mist on the right hand side of this picture. Can you see it?  Then, this morning, after all these years, I was looking through these old photos to find something to post and noticed an eery resemblance to the carved face pictured at the top.

But then, if you think about it, the Redwood Forest is after all a place of mystery.

Wooden Mushrooms


Well, they aren't really made of wood!  Though at first glance it almost seems they might be.  Note the water in the middle is in the shape of a heart.


My Friend Linda and I found them one misty afternoon, as we'd embarked on a quick walk.  She was from out of town and before they left, she wanted to see the "Curly Cue House" I had told her about.   Then a half block away, we discovered these palm-sized mushrooms.


This one looks like one of those sculpted water features!


And we did get to see the Curly Cue House, too.  See the flamingo heart?

Beach Doodle Heart - Guest Heart Thursday

 Sissy and I were so blessed to spend time together by the sea.  Here the snow covers the sand down to the waterline.  In the distance is Tea Cup Rock--probably because of the tiny handle on the right hand side!  I love the teal color of the waves and the way the clouds waft an upside down heart overhead.

 Of course on our walks along the sands--we found many hearts--this heart rock was one of my favorites.


There's a couple of hearts in this one, too--it is sea weed with snow drifting against its sides.  Clytie and I call this a Beach Doodle Heart!  What a marvelous time we had by the sea, where the snow fell and the sun shone against the ceaseless song of the waves.
